London Haul

So… I did a little shopping. While we were in London I’d planned to pick up the bits and pieces I’d been after in Boots along with a few other items I had my eye on at Topshop as I rarely treat myself to their inflated prices…however, I decided I could buy those anytime so I chose stores we don’t have near us or that are exclusive to the city. I was so excited to find a Kiko makeup store at the Westfield Centre.. I’ve seen Fee from MakeupSavvy’s posts about the brand but never want to take the plunge online.. I will definitely be buying more from their site now. The most exciting purchase has to be my Victoria’s Secret Hoodie.. I have wanted one for so long and I finally got one for a steal in the sales so I’m a very happy girl. To see everything I got you can watch the video below..

Heya, new reader here. I have to say, I find it kind of sad that you mostly write blogposts without much content at all, and just referring to the video for that content. Because personally, I read my blogfeed on the way to work or elsewhere, when I can’t really watch videos.
I’m probably alone with this anyway, but I just thought I’d let you know.
Love your blog, anyhow. x

Well I hope you are alone in that because I put up 14 posts a week! I think it’s a little unfair to say that I write posts with little content given that a lot of bloggers post just once or twice a week! When I redesigned my blog I wanted it to be a hub for all of my content so I now post my YouTube videos 3 times a week alongside my 4 other regular posts (which do not have embedded videos). As of this year I also started a “Dear Diary” series and blog a little every day about whatever I feel like talking about. This month I am ‘vlogging’ every day and so I am also embedding those videos into the diary posts at the moment. I am hoping that because you are new to my blog you are generalising because the posts which are appealing to you actually lead to videos rather than a lot of written content. At the end of the day it all depends on what you’re looking for in a blogger, if you’re looking for war and peace I can recommend some others you may prefer! Must admit your comment really got under my skin, I put so much time in to this it’s disappointing to hear someone say you’re just phoning it in.

This is my first comment on any beauty blog, ever. But i really felt like I had to chime in here… I’ve been following you since November, and even since then I’ve noticed so many improvements on your blog and videos.

Don’t listen to people who want to criticise – you could be offering some people gold bullions and they’d still have something negative to say. How about taking headphones and watching or listening to the videos? Too obvious?? :O)

Thank you! It’s lovely to hear you’ve seen improvements since November as I kind of felt that I’d let things slide since I went back to work but I really have tried to commit and I think saying I will post a minimum of once a day has definitely helped keep me focused x

Woah, 80-something pounds regular price for a VS hoodie??!! I live in the states and those things are 40-50 dollars max (25-32 pounds I think?) not on sale! Anyway, love your blog and the videos are the best part. Much <3 from across the pond!
